The Protection Theory is Right.
To the Kansas Farmer:

To the Kansas Farmer:
The tariff discussions now going on in
your columns interest me, not only for the
ableness with which protection is defend
ed, but for the inability of many of your
correspondents, who advocate virtual free
trade, to grasp the idea and aim of the
protective theory. In the first place, let
me assure these correspondents that every
country that has made any advance in
manufacturing has done it almost wholly
under protective system; and that noto-
rious free trader of to-day-the merry
and tight land of England-att attained its
present manufacturing standard under
scores of years of protection. We submit
further that the English farmer is burden
ed by an enormous direct tax, the result
of having little or no revenue from i'm
ports-a tax which, if applied to the farm
ers of this country, would cause them to
view their tax receipts with even more
anxiety than they do now. Again, the
American farmer is being benefited by a
lucrative home market, market which
gives him better price and quicker returns
than any other.
That protection has fostered industries
in this country, and that competition has
reduced the price of standard goods is an
argument which has been ably expounded
through the columns of the Farmer and is
a fact beyond equivocation, regardless of
the duties existing on any such goods that
may be imported Let the average farm
er figure on the destruction of his home
market, depression Of prices for his pro-
duce, heavily increased direct taxation,
distress among the laboring classes, and
no practical reduction in the prices of
goods that he buys over the merchants
counters, and he will commence to think,
after all, that protection is not fallacy
and system of thievery. George Wash
ington, who is generally regarded as
level-headed statesman, was protection
list fully as ardent as those of to-day. Who
shall say that George was wrong?

Help Yourself.
Newton Republican.

Kansas towns must learn the lesson that
the gods help those who help themselves;
and an illustration Of this adage comes to
US from Atchison. For ten years that
town has been stuck on the pork pack
ing bushes. Tue town is full of money
of its own, accumulated in thirty years of
business. but foreign capital was perpet-
ually solicited to come and build and
maintain packing house for the suppos-
ed benefit of Atchison.
Foreign parties and more or less CAPT.
tai came, but each time demanded bo-
nus from Atchison, and insisted on build
ing the packing house in Missouri, where
Atchison received no benefit from the
taxes.
Three times foreign capital' came, got
a bonus, and quit; two of the subsidized
firms moving to Kansas City.
In the last deal, Atchison was out about
$50, 900; and had deserted packing house
and machinery which came to the city
under forfeit clause, inserted in the last
cantract by long-delayed exertion of
common sense. Now we learn that the
city has sold the house and traps for a
low figure to some home butchers who
have made comfortable fortunes selling
meat in Atchison, who will remove the
establishment to the Atchison side OF the
river, and doubtless build up fine bust
ness and add something to the prosperity
of the city.
This lesson should be learned first as
last: Kansas people should help them
selves. A Kansas man has just as good a
right to put his own money into home
enterprise as any other man. A little in
vestigation will make it plain that the
most successful manufacturing enterpris-
es In Kansas are those started in small
way by Kansas men with their own money.
and which have grown up with the
country.

Shelter for Stock.

provision of food and shelter fer range
stock is coming into fashion" But it
ought to be true, as the Drovers' J1ouynal
says: "When, in one winter, such as last,
ranchmen see 50 per cent of their herds
swept away, they are apt to become pref
udiced against the old system of letting
the cattle fight for their lives against such
fearful Odds"

DESPITE the convictions of dough

DESPITE the convictions of dough-
faced Republicans that Virginia was per-
forming big evolution as starter to
wheeling away from the solid South, she
turned up on Tuesday with about three
fourth of the senate and nearly two-thirds
OF the house of delegates Democratic.
The way to make the South Republican
is to stand back. and swear she is coming
around all right. That the negroes are
denied the right to vote, and that there is
no Republicanism in that kind OF govern
ment it is all right-since the negroes
have turned into Democrats.
